carburetor

I just got my first nitro rc 3 days ago (it's a HSP nitro rc monster truck 1:10 second hand) (with a SH 18 engine) and it basically looks new and is visually in great condition. Tho i haven't been able to start it yet (according to the previous owner he last started it in December and it should...

Hey All, So I'm working on my nitro I got for X-Mas, don't know what brand it was but the engine is a VX-18. It was running pretty decently for a while, then I had a kind of rough crash, it was bad enough to snap a wheel stub axle and I *think* it broke the clutch shoe spring. (the damage to...

I can't prime my engine by blocking the exhaust. But I did it with no problem when blowing through the exhaust outlet or the back pressure tube. When i crank the engine over one time (with the exhaust blocked trying to prime it) i can see the fuel in the line moving forward (by forward i mean 1...

the manual said that the slide valve should be set so that it has a 0.7 - 1.0 mm gap, but that's just kinda unclear for me, i want to know by how many turns out from completely closed (idle set screw) thks

Hello all, I recently purchased a LRP ZR.32 For my Savage XL and I heard from multiple sources and even this forum that the carb is notoriously bad at holding a tune. so what are good alternatives from the stock XTEC carb on these things? I ALREADY KNOW the NovaR .28 Carb is basically the...

I have a HPI .21 3.5 cc Motor that is missing the carburetor. Can anyone help me identify this motor to see if I can buy a carburetor for it.

I'm doing a conversion and I'm wondering how i flip the carb so i can use the linkage kit for the slide carb.

I am running a newly built 29cc cy motor with a new RB Innovations Carburetor Heat Insulator Block w/ Diaphragm Filter, a new 990 carb, new ddm velocity stack, new dt1 air filter and all new gaskets. I am also running the Full-Force RC v2 High Flow Fuel Line Kit. I was stupid enough to...

Hello all, A local hobby store recommended using Car Brake Cleaner to spray in RC Nitro Engine to clean it and the carb. See photo attached. Any views or experiences please? Thank you

Hi, Is it crucial to use some form of gasket sealant when replacing a carb like for like or can it just be replaced and secured? Thanks

Hi ladies and gents I picked up a thunder tiger pro .28 i'm trying to track down the base needle settings but it would appear i have a different carb than in the manual so i need some help, google has given me nothing, the carb fitted to this engine does not have the mid range needle, i have...

Hey guys. I'm a total newbie so please be gentle with me. I have managed to start my car up and what happened the other day was when i started it it was automatically on full throttle and the car was just going really fast. Lucky I put on some bricks but I had to pull the fuel line out rapid...

Hello All, I have a Shadow SB1 Buggy made by GS Racing and am not in possession of the original manual so if anyone has a similar buggy or knows the factory carburetor setting for the high, low and idle screw or knows what to do if you have to tune a buggy from scratch. Thank You Cyklon

What are they and what do they do? I know that they restrict the airflow into the carb, but isn't that the opposite of what you'd want? More air more power right?

Ok so the only way I can get my 3.3 to start and idle is for it to be at half throttle. I myself have been over it numerous times as well as the hobby shops, and can't figure it out. Brend new everything except piston and sleeve,because they were still in good repair,new carb,tank,lines. Lots of...

So about five or six years ago I got a Kyosho Inferno(Not sure which model, It's been so long) and along with it came some back-up parts. Now at the time when I received the car I knew very little about rc cars and because of this I only ran the car about twice and then kept it in a garage for...

Hi all. Got this SH .28 P6 from a deal but I need a carburetor. First of all, this engine seems mean on the papir with 3.8 BHP - can I trust this? I have already a GO .28 mounted and it has no rating of BHP. I do not know how to compare those engines. Back to the carburetor. Does all .28...
